As per Mark who mentioned above in his comment, need to slow cook whole dish for at least 2 hours. Finally you got irresistible - full of flavours, textures and taste, exquisite one pot dish - Enjoy

This is a great recipe - but I really don’t see how you can cook gizzards for ‘30-40 min until tender’!
It takes a minimum of 1h30 to 2h before they are tender

Enjoyed the meal. It is difficult to always get chourico. when this happens can you suggest an alternative?
